Only 1 day to go before Needleprint closes. I just want to take a moment together to remember all the astonishing projects you, yes you, inspired. There was no way I could ever have begun this journey without your support and many kindnesses. Let's remember that amazing, world-wide Mary Wigham Stitchalong, the books and charts you bought which raised money for sampler conservation at Ackworth School, the 2 world-wide gatherings at Ackworth School in 2006 and 2008, the encouragement to keep going which resulted in the full colour complete catalogue of The Goodhart Samplers, The Judith Hayle Samplers - and as a final hurrah the magnificent and unsurpassed Feller Collection - the precious early works now gifted to the Ashmolean Museum for all to visit.

So we are almost through now. Today we are selling packs of 5 Amager 1799 Panel charts for $30. If you are a shop or a group of friends who would like to club together you have a great offer at half wholesale price. The normal retail price of these charts is $100.
In addition to the Panel, there is a history of the Dutch community in Denmark's Amager, beautiful illustrations of the women in their traditional dress and 6 mini-projects for you to work through the year.

I am delighted to say that all Needleprint licences have been sold to a single store. I am so happy they will remain together and all the years of our work will be transferred to the care of excellent and capable ownership. This means you will be able to continue purchases after Needleprint closes. I'll be sharing more about the future in later posts.

Yes, it's time to hand over the baton. Over the next few days I shall be selling licences for the sampler charts we have created at Needleprint.

Each licence comes with image and drafted chart with stitching details in pdf format together with permission to sell under your own name from 1st February 2017. The charts normally retail at $20 each. The price for a licence is $80 - meaning you simply need to sell 4 charts to make a profit.

Today the offer is for a pack of 5 lovely quality printed charts of the same design - Mary Peacock - one of the loveliest polychrome medallion samplers in Ackworth School. This is a great offer for a stitching group or Guild, or if you have a small shop and sell charts. These charts are less than half the wholesale price - $30 to include airmail shipping to wherever you are. (The charts normally retail at around $20 each.)

I have been retired for over a year now and though I miss everyone greatly, your kindnesses are always in my thoughts. Today is an auspicious day when I start to close Needleprint down forever - a big step (deep breath). So in the next week or so I shall be clearing the small stock remaining. Today the offer is for a pack of 5 lovely quality printed charts - see the images - all for $30 to include airmail shipping to wherever you are.
The charts are: Amager Panel 1797, Marken, Rebecca Blake, Mary Peacock and Hannah Westcombe. The normal price of these charts together was $100. I am sorry these are all sold now.
